Update. Bad news.

It’s not Wednesday, but I wanted to update everyone that’s wondering about Missy. She got worse fast and I took her to the vet again today and since whatever it was that she had, it wasn’t something that was going to be treatable and she was declining so she was euthanised. I got to hold her while she went. It was peaceful and pretty quick because of how small she’d gotten. I’d had a feeling it was going to come to this, so I was prepared, but obviously I’m pretty devastated so I’m not going to be blogging for a couple of weeks. Thanks for the thoughts. I’m glad she was a cat rather than a human, because I was able to make that choice for her and save her from a rapid decline and painful death because whatever it was (suspected tumour in the lungs) would’ve just eaten her from the inside. Even when she was eating she was losing weight and the last couple of days she’d barely been eating a thing, so I think she was ready to go as well. I miss her a lot and will continue to miss her and grieve for a while, but I know I made the right decision. It just sucks that she was only nine and it happened so fast but, in a way, I think I would rather die fast and sudden than pained and prolonged. RIP Miss Kitty Fantastico.
